NAME

       import-bug-from-debian  -  Import  bugs from Debian's BTS, and file them against Ubuntu in
       LP.

SYNOPSIS

       import-bug-from-debian [options] bug...
       import-bug-from-debian -h

DESCRIPTION

       import-bug-from-debian clones bugs from Debian's BTS into Launchpad. Each  bug  listed  on
       the  command  line  has  its  initial  report  re-filed against the same source package in
       Ubuntu.  The Ubuntu bug is linked back to its Debian counterpart.

       Each bug may be provided either as a bug number or URL.

              Don't open the bug in a browser at the end.

       -h, --help
              Display a help message and exit.

       -l INSTANCE, --lpinstance=INSTANCE
              Use the specified instance of Launchpad (e.g. "staging"), instead of the default of
              "production".

       -p PACKAGE, --package=PACKAGE
              Launchpad  package  to  file  bug  against,  if not the same source package name as
